　The 66th Tokyo Minato Festival was held, and I enjoyed watching it on May 24 (Saturday).

On the day, it was called "2014 Water Fire Service Pageant" by the Tokyo Fire Department.

Beginning with a parade of Nihonbashi and Kyobashi firefighting boys, color girls, and music bands, there were opening greetings and guest congratulations.

The highlight is the “napping water discharge” that showcases the daily training of the Tokyo Fire Department.

"Firefighting performance." It was a very nervous scene of rescueing a person who fell from the ship and transporting it to a fire boat.

"High-speed fire brigade performance." No, it rushes to the scene at a great speed.

And it is a five-color color water discharge to celebrate the bid decision of the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games 2020.

Harumi Wharf is scheduled for the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games 2020 Olympic Village. I'm really looking forward to it.

The children who visited also seemed very happy at the fun event.

　This "Yuru-chara" is the mascot of the Japan Coast Guard. What's the name?　Here's the answer.

There were a lot of local gourmet restaurants, all of which seemed to be delicious.

　I wanted to buy Ghana beer, "Yashi Sake", and cacao liqueur, but I put up with it in preparation for the city walk from noon. Here, Quiz

"What if" in the sea ... The answer is 118. I thank the Japan Coast Guard and the Fire and Disaster Management Agency for their hard work to prevent marine accidents and rescue them.

  On May 8, 2014, a bridge girder was applied to "Ring Route 2 Sumida River Bridge (tentative name)".
Today, in addition to many inhabitants of the ward, TV stations also visited to record news.

 
According to the panel on display, the structure of this bridge is structured.
It is said that it is "a three-way continuous Nakaji-style arch bridge".
"By eliminating the upper side lumber and tilting the arch to the sidewalk side, Hashigami provides a sense of openness different from other Sumida River bridges.
In addition, the suspended material connected to the tilted arch mainly supports the roadway, and expresses the Motohashi design, which is greatly opened upward, like a harp. "

 
The height from the water surface to the bridge girder is said to be 5.8m.
It seems that there is no effect on houseboats and water buses going around the Sumida River.

 
  With the completion of the bridge connecting Harumi, Kachidoki, Tsukiji and Ginza, it seems that it will be available during 2015.
And in 2020, access to the Olympic Athlete Village in Harumi (planned) and the Olympic venue will be easier, making it easier for not only the central residents but also spectators who visit the Olympic Games to come and go. Everything is all right.
Please see here for the installation of the left and right abutments before the bridge.

  The "Ginza willow Festival" has been held on Children's Day on May 5 since 2006, and this is the eighth earliest this year.

Nishi Ginza Street (Sotobori-dori St.) is a pedestrian paradise, and the organizer's desire to enjoy the festival safely and with peace of mind can be conveyed.

This year, we decided to enjoy entertainment from Ginza 8-chome to Ginza 1-chome.

First of all, the appreciation of "Shimbashi Geisha East Odori". Shingo Okasoe, the organizer of the Tokyo Shimbashi Association, said, "Shimbashi Geisha is a Geisha in Ginza," after talking about history and development.

"Beautiful in Japan", a gorgeous dance of Shimbashi Geisha's sister.

"East Odori" will be held at Shimbashi Enbujo from May 24th (Sat) to 27th (Tue).

This is the 90th anniversary of this year. By all means, I would like to rush to appreciate it.

Next is "Haven Artist in Ginza", which was shown from Ginza 6-chome to 5-chome.

The Tokyo Metropolitan street performer "Haven Artist" gathered in Ginza and showed off a lot of the beauty techniques trained in daily practice. It was fun

　There were gifts of seedlings of "Ginza's willow", children called "Kodomo Airada-Ginza" had the experience of painting on the street, and there was also a "hometown sightseeing PR campaign", which was inspired by the journey . The Itako bride is absent

And in Ginza 2-chome, it is a traditional dance plaza of the "Hometown Tourism PR Campaign". Is it "Good Yosakoi Workshop"? The children danced seriously and happily with skilled dancers, and foreign tourists jumped in and participated one after another.

　"Ginza willow Festival"!　I can't wait for next year.

　Today is a walk in Nihonbashi. Well, when I thought about having lunch,

Search for knowledge in the brain with Japanese food, delicious and affordable prices.

The answer is Honen Manpuku, Nihonbashi Muromachi. It is a friendly shop with many families during the day.

Some limited items have already been sold out, so the three types of Toyonen Manpuku Gozen Ozori.
I ordered 1,000 yen for three kinds of grilled fish, banzai. 2 slices of lean beet tuna, 2 slices of red sea bream, alfonsino, etc. The white rice was delicious, so I replaced it.

In addition, kaiseki meal for lunch is 3,000 yen required by the day before.

There are plenty of menu at night, and there are many dishes made with a variety of appetizers from Nihonbashi long-established store.

　There are plenty of drinks. The bottle of shochu is about four thousand yen. The wine is about four thousand to five thousand yen.
